Hilarious that game announcers refuse to use her name, and just keep refering to Kelce and his fiancee, girlfriend, or date.

@Criminalsimpson It’s the country-fried truck endorsed by a clown

“Can you name the truck with four wheel drive,smells like a steak and seats thirty-five..”

@kristoncapps @tomsherwood Tbf thats temporary lane marking tape.

Painting the pool blue, painting the EEOB white, painting a public plaza with parking stripes — it's all the same story. There are guidelines to altering the historic fabric of Washington. Trump just doesn't follow any of them.

@SafeSidewalksDC @TimSloanDC @WABADC @purplelinenow Air pressure change in front of train could destabilize cyclists.

@TimSloanDC @WABADC @purplelinenow That's a bummer we wont be able to see the trains- what is the reason?

Looks like fresh asphalt on the Capital Crescent Trail in Bethesda. #CCT #BikeDC @WABADC @purplelinenow

@garrett_TFE @brentgilroy The operating license will surely go to Trump. The one good thing is just like he’s trying to cancel the current contract this one can be cancelled too.

@brentgilroy Not a likely outcome. These are federal lands.

These two renderings of a potential "reimagined" East Potomac Park appear in a fundraising document distributed by the new "National Garden of American Heroes Foundation." It's unclear to what degree these (very AI-looking) images represent Tom Fazio's actual plans for the golf course, but I think they reveal some important things about the Trump administration's intentions at East Potomac: 1) The new "championship" golf course would take up most of the island. This would mean losing the perimeter road and bike path, the open space at the southern tip of the island, and perhaps even the famous cherry blossom trees, which feature prominently in an annual festival. These non-golf resources at East Potomac Park are used heavily by D.C. residents. 2) Building a bigger course would also mean reducing the number of available golf holes at the facility, likely from 36 to 18, as well as eliminating a historic, recently restored mini-golf course. Inevitably, this would make golf in D.C. less accessible, especially to beginning golfers. 3) Green fees for East Potomac's Blue Course currently top out at $48. There's no way the number would stay there post-reno. 4) The whole nouveau-riche, water-feature-centric aesthetic shown in the renderings is very much in line with Fazio's past work, but not at all representative of East Potomac's historical character and purpose. 5) The administration and the President himself have been open about their hopes to bring a major championship or Ryder Cup to the renovated East Potomac. I think it would be tremendously difficult to stage a tournament of that scale on this island, even after the reno. It does not appear to me that there's enough room.

@HughHansen @RichardHanania US Airways bought American, but kept the American brand.

@RichardHanania The conventional wisdom was that American bought US Airways to prevent itself from going out of business.

I mean…maybe? A merger doesn’t just result in a sum total of two companies. There may be reasons that two companies doing poorly might have complementarities. Is that what would have happened here? I don’t know. But that’s why markets should decide these things.

@Birdyword And because they make a lot of noise.

Many people do not seem to want data centres built near them, despite the fact that they don't cause that much traffic and often generate a lot of local tax revenue. I suspect it's partly because they're ugly! My proposal:

@OldSchoolBoston Charlie - still riding the T.

New subway fare boxes are pictured on Jan. 24, 1950 in Boston, MA. New open-throat fare boxes replaced dime-fair boxes after the M.T.A. fare increased from 10 to 15 cents. (Boston Globe)

@PGunigantiAT It’s labored, but you get the golden mushroom when you’re behind (maybe you never are) so you can catch up.

I am a huge Super Nintendo Mario Kart fan but I don’t understand this metaphor. Is it because I always played as Toad? (Quick acceleration & maneuverability instead of the highest top speed & heavy weight; this is also how I buy cars IRL). Anyway for the fans in DC…

@Reagan_Airport Just to the right of right edge of the photo … on the Mall.

Who remembers where you were when this fly-by happened on this day in 2012? 📷: NASA

@GChernack @notthefakeSVP Ovi sporting the not-grey beard and the offseason weight.

@notthefakeSVP Earlier that day, Caps went to the Nats game, and somehow my younger son got to hang with the team.

That spot between really good and really bad can be tricky.

@311DCgov @DDOTDC traffic signal Foxhall Rd NB at Nebraska Ave - red bulb on LH signal not functioning.

@maustermuhle @ChmnMendelson Maybe DDOT Director Sharon Kershbaum, whose husband is a federal judge and received threats from J6 rioters.

Interesting: @ChmnMendelson has a new bill that would prohibit government agencies, individuals, and businesses from publicly posting personal information about federal and D.C. judges, including their home address, if they ask that it be kept private. lims.dccouncil.gov/Legislation/B2…

@jbarro @librarythingtim Even without a religious background! I’d wager a substantial majority of the non-Christian world (~70% or 5 billion people) would recognize that as a reference to Jesus. It’s not obscure!

Anyone without a religious background still understands the religious imagery. It's so insulting to all of our intelligence that we've had to spend 11 fucking years engaging the world's stupidest lies from this man

@GChernack @AdamTuss If a camera is generating a lot of revenue it means there are a lot of speeders!

@aheimert @AdamTuss I don’t think so. Were there accidents pre-cameras on these corridors exist or are they picked for revenue reasons?

@AdamTuss I think you like these kind of stories - DC lowered speed limit on Loughboro Rd NW from 25 to 20 in Feb. but changed only one sign - right before the speed camera east of Sibley Hosp. The old 25 mph signs are up just before the new one. Guess what happened to tickets?

@GChernack @AdamTuss slashgear.com/2117014/do-tra…

@GChernack @AdamTuss One challenge is on any given corridor crash data are very lumpy.

@GChernack @AdamTuss sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@GChernack @AdamTuss Loads of data showing severity of collisions reduced at lower speeds.

@aheimert @AdamTuss Is there any data on whether lowering speed limit/cameras has a safety impact? (I’m still mad about the most ridiculous camera ticket I got — not stopping completely at stop line but instead at intersection where any car was actually visible … at 7am on a Sunday.)
